Well first of all linux uses the forward slash / and not the backward slash. Secondly, "it doesn't work" isn't good enough. Please say precisely how it's failing (errors given, etc). Third (and most importantly) this is the wrong site for this question. This site is for programming questions.

Hi coder. As this question is not related to programming, you are more likely to get an answer on Super User or unix.stackexchange.com

If it says the drive is in use, close all the explorers that are showing contents of ur pen drive. Close Video/Audio/Multimedia/Any Other applications that are using pendrive
eg: VLC playing a video file from ur PenDrive.

IMHO the -I switch is unnecessary, because you create the VFAT FS inside a partition (sdc1), not on the whole device (sdc). Otherwise good job trying to capture some possible error scenarios.
